AmScope M150 Series Portable LED Monocular Student Compound Microscope - 40X-1000X Magnification - Microscope Kit Includes Dust Cover, 2 Clips & 2 Eyepieces

Very intuitive

This is not a professional microscope but it is above a toy .If you want to take a quick look at lower magnification it works great. The highest magnification is useless . Can never achieve focus at highest magnification . The subject will hit the lens and never be in focus. For what it is and being all metal and the price I like it.

I bought this for my son who has developed an interest in biology and he loves it. The rest of the reviews here cover the scope pretty well. I'm leaving this one to say that we had an issue with the eyepieces so we contacted Amscope directly. They promptly resolved the issue without any hassle. This alone was enough to prompt me to write this review. Good customer service adds greatly to the value of this microscope.

Straight out the box you get a good quality microscope. Everything is packaged well! The microscope has a good weight to it!! It doesn't feel like a toy. It comes with everything as stated. I like the fact that this uses both battery and adapter for the light source which includes a knob for brightening/dimming. While observing specimen, the lens clarity is amaizing!! Everything works how it supposed to. My only complaint is not having a knob to tune the stage left and right. I would've also liked if we were able to use that type C input with a cable for imaging but that's just a power adapter input. Overall I still give this product 5 stars! Definately a good buy! Good value for the price!

It has clear optics and a quality build. The only negative thing I can say regarding my use is it doesn’t have an upper light. I knew this when I bought it and had a plan for auxiliary lighting. I am very happy with my purchase.

Viewing ability is great. Easy to use. Brightness is great, focus is good. Slide quality is great. It is great microscope for beginners, not to cheap but not top of the line. Quality of what you use in high school. Good weight to it. Would order again

When I bought this I expected a new product. Either it was mishandled during assembly by amscope or I bought it new and Amazon shipped me a used one cause all of the black you see in this photo is scratches and it's very noticeable when using a 40x eyepiece and very noticeable when using a 100x (oil) eyepiece. Sometimes it's difficult to tell what's scratches and what's not. But enjoy this photo I took of raw unfiltered honey. It's pollen. There's lots of these and different types and shapes in raw honey. It does fine with the eyepieces it comes with when viewing things and the light it's pretty bright. The stage doesn't wobble and it stays where you want it. The fine tuning is great also.
